In love with this 1894 Park Slope Brooklyn, New York City brownstone. It has 6bd. 3.5ba., and is, sadly, $4.999M.

Look at this great original hallway. Beautiful millwork.

The sitting room off the entrance has a wonderful huge mirror wall.

The 2nd sitting room is also amazing.

Love the sunny dining room. It has a great fireplace and look st the original floor.

Isn’t this built-in china cabinet fantastic?

I LOVE the kitchen, it has so many original elements, including the fireplace.

Details of the stair railing.

Just look at this original bath. It’s amazing.

I would say this room is more than likely a bedroom that is being used as a spare room.

A smaller bedroom is sunny and has a lovely fireplace.

Another completely original bathroom sink.

And, this home also has terraces in the rear, as well as a yard and garden.

no. 61 poplar street re-imagined interior. the structure of the brooklyn newsboys’ lodging house closely resembled that of the CAS’s lodging houses in manhattan. it provided cost-effective accommodations, including beds, meals, washrooms, a gymnasium, an in-house school, a superintendent, & similar amenities. in addition to its designation as the newsboys’ lodging house or newsboys’ home, an 1899 article calls it the children’s home and the working boys’ home.

the building was situated on the northern side of poplar street, west of the block’s center, bordered by henry and hicks streets. positioned 2 blocks south of the entrance to the brooklyn bridge (brooklyn heights).

for more details, check out nineduane.queensity.com. it’s a lovely resource on the lodging houses for any newsies-writing!

Architectural Finds, 06/25/2023

Today's walk was short, I was just going in to DoBro to get some things from target but of course I had to stop and take some pictures along the way. Here are some architectural highlights from the walk there.

First were these row-houses along Fulton St, and this cool corner window aspect that the end house had.

Built 1882.

Located at 664-674 Fulton St these seemed like they were all the same architect save for the third house in at 668 that looked like it been rebuilt at some point or maybe covered with a brick facade.

You can see some of the rusting from the old Cast-Iron facade that was cutting edge technology in the day in the second picture.

Another row of houses that caught my eye were this row of brownstones with their beautiful ornamentation around the door frames. This is right around the corner at 109-117 S Elliot Pl.

I have no way of knowing if they were all built by the same owners originally as I cant seem to find any records for them online :/, but they were likely built around the turn of the last century 1890-1910 when this style of building was commonly constructed. It was likely that they were built by separate owners/architects, as their ornamental stone decorations aren't all exactly the same.

Moving on, A CHURCH! That's right I love a good ornate church and this one surely delivered. Just look at that gothic stone articulation above the entrance! Its so organic looking, it sends shivers down my spine just looking at it and I want to sink my teeth into it all in one.

Built in 1931 to the tune of the Hanson Place Central United Methodist Church, and today it sits abandoned, boarded up, and full of black mold.

The overall shape of the building is so interesting it has so much going on with its MASSIVE brick pillar motifs, likely intended to vertically gesture up toward the creator.

One source describes it as "Gothic restyled in modern dress, an exercise in massing brick and tan terracotta that might be called cubistic Art Moderne."

Someone with more theological architectural background could go further in depth than I can on it I'm sure, but it's always exciting to see the passionate attention to detail that a good cathedral has in it's architecture.

Next I don't know if I love this one but I just wanted to shout it out as having a BIG clock face! Like that thing is so high upppp it must be 100 feet in diameter!

Without even looking it up I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say this is maybe Brooklyn City Hall, or another government building??? It resembles the thing they're doing in all of the governing buildings I've seen up in Albany.

I don't particularly like this architectural style its boring and chunky in my opinion, but I have to say its not the ugliest thing I've seen. I respect the sense of radial symmetry its upper terraces and flanks suggest, and cmon you cant knock that clock.

Second to last, we have this red & black beauty. Love the Greek-Revival pediments on each wing of the building as well as the renaissance revival inclusions in the carved cords/ribbons hanging in between the pilasters.

After some research, this seems to be an old Schoolhouse built in 1892 that has unfortunately since been absorbed by the ultra-modern townhouse on the end of the street at 81 Hanson Pl and transformed into a massive painting studio/home by painter David Salle. Wish I could find more info on the original schoolhouse tho :/

(Second photo ripped from google images)

HONORABLE MENTION: Caught this Mansard Roof moment on my way into the subway station and oof, tug at my heartstrings this is cute.

Across the street from the dream studio/abomination this guy sits pretty at 83 Hanson Pl and is the only brownstone on the block with a cute hat (mansard roof).

1899 brownstone townhouse in Brooklyn, New York has been renovated but some unique original features still remain. $2.595M

The floors and doors are totally original in the entrance.

Love the marble fireplace.

Isn’t that interesting? A door (that needs some dark stain) leads out to the yard, but look at the large mirror in the middle.

The home has 5 bds., and this may be one of them. The large windows let in lots of natural light.

The kitchen has been modernized, but luckily, they retained the original fireplace and breakfast room.

One of the bedroom that has been reno’d at least still has the original brick fireplace wall. Like the new black fireplace- it ties in nicely with the more modern look.

There are 4 baths. This one is nicely done in a reproduction vintage look.

And conversely, this one is very modern marble. Why would you do this?

There’s a decent yard- a yard of any kind is a plus in New York City.
